Hello, I have this on another thread but found something that made me think this may be a better spot to post. I'll run it here for awhile and see if anyone knows. I will probably try the other Forums too. Hope that is ok. I posted a couple of new pictures. There are more on the South Bend forum. It was also mentioned it looks like a Sheldon. If someone does think they know for sure and could send me a picture or 2 I would be grateful .The follow rest came with a 13 inch south Bend. It is not a south Bend though. I found that the tailstock wrench says "Leblond" So thinking maybe the follow rest is from a Leblond as well. I have the spindle out of the 13 now but when I set the unknown rest on one bolt [both don't line up] the "circle" of the rest follows pretty close to a regular South Bend 13 follow rest ,which I recently picked up. So I think it is for a 13 or maybe a little bigger or smaller as I do not know how the mounting bolts for it would be ,but it must be similar. Measurements are Offset from attachment point (saddle contact) is 2-1/2" to outside of finger. Mounting slots are 7/16".Distance from edge of vertical slot to inside edge of horizontal slot is 2-7/8". Bolt hole pattern should be aprox. 3" center to center. Overall height is 11-5/8". Height from bottom of base to top of circle is 8-1/8". This is measured sitting on tabletop surface. 11032 are the only numbers I found and it is on the end of one finger. Thanks , Chris
